Times and Star - Looking for Death Notices?

We've moved death notices to a new place.

Take me to death notices
Birthday

Gavican Millie

HAPPY 70TH MILLIE GAVICAN!

Oh dearest Millie
A unique OAP
With award-winning 'scookies'
And a huge sponge fairy

Chic, travelled and worldly
By train, plane or bus
Cool as a cucumber
But hot in Ephesus

You sew, read, love opera
Write poetry, that's true
When you fancied a condo'
To Florida you flew

You sometimes say 'done it'
When 'did it' is better
But oh how we tremble
When we get a 'letter'

Bursting with insight
Critique and advice
To make sure we don't live
In a fool's paradise

Always on your iPad
For facts, tunes and text
But thankfully not Tinder
You're too old for sex

And so to the end of
Our cheery wee ode
About a friend of the weak
And the lonely and old

A top mam and grandma
Wise mentor and friend
So it's warm birthday greetings
That we do now send!
